As the (twitter, booze, whatever) hangovers from yesterday’s primary election fade, the winners and losers become (somewhat) clearer. Local wins include those for a waterfront development proposition and an earthquake bond measure, while at the state level it looks like former SF Mayor Gavin Newsom will probably continue to do whatever it is that he does without too much trouble. There’s also over 287,000 losers in California, all of whom made a terrible decision in the voting booth. And I’m saying that from a politically objective standpoint. Here we go!

Proposition A ($400 Earthquake Safety Bond Measure): Winner79% of San Francisco’s voters who actually voted OKed this $400 million earthquake safety bond measure, which will be used to pay for seismic upgrades on city buildings that contain emergency responders.

The 287,590 California Voters Who Voted For Leland Yee: Losers
Suspended state senator Leland Yee (you know his story) had dropped out of the race for Secretary of State, but the ballots were already printed, so his name was on there. That was apparently enough for 287,590 voters, who connected the lines for Yee, giving him 9.8% of the vote. That’s third place, you guys! Yee, who faces multiple charges like conspiracy to deal and import arms, came out ahead of Democrats Derek Cressman and Jeffrey Drobman, Republican Roy Allmond, the Green Party member David Curtis, and Dan Schnur, an Independent.
